Infernal legion support gem

Does the infernal legion gem dmg stack if you have multiple monions? Say you had a skeleton team of 5, would each minion deal the aoe damage to the mob? I read yes and no from every, and if it does stack how many times can it stack? what if using vaal skeletons, where is the limit here?

And 2nd question, with what sources does the infernal damage scale from the skill tree?

Read some sources and it was rather unclear about the infernal legion but, it was mention that infernal legion only scales with minion damage from the skill tree, sounds weird you wouldnt be able to scale it via the % increase fire damage nodes on the skill tree

No, multiple sources of Infernal Legion do not stack. And if passives don't specify minions or allies, they don't apply to minions. So no, increased fire damage on your tree does not scale Infernal Legion. Those passives only apply to you.

I'll elaborate a bit.

Similarly to Rightous Fire, Infernal Legion damage from several sources doesn't stack. Since you've already seen controversial info, here's the proof. The reason it works like that is it applies a debuff (in area) that cause enemies to take fire damage over time. In PoE most debuffs doesn't stack, only the strongest apply.

Just like %increased spell damage doesn't scale spell damage of your minions. You can't scale minions via modifiers that intended for your character. If there were "minions deal % increased fire damage" stats, they would work.

Thank you! Very helpful:)

The wiki says they stack, which i'm honestly dubious about as personally I expected this to be a definite no.

anyone with real firsthand knowledge know about this?

Thanks nice to see a GGG answer, for what its worth I don't use that wiki and assumed it was wrong regardless :p
